Chapter 474: Chapter 473: Enormous Threat
"What?"
The commanders of the All Spirit Clan were shocked by the West Spirit King’s words. Although they hadn’t lived through that era, they all knew its legends—of a ti when even the mighty Divine Race trembled at the na of a Human Clan sage who wielded the Yuanhong Sword.
What are we compared to them? We’re not even fit to carry their shoes.
The West Spirit King continued, "That is only one part. There is another, even more important discovery." He paused, his gaze sweeping over them. "And I must say, it will test your resolve."
Everyone was puzzled. The Yuanhong Sword alone was enough to send a chill down their spines; what news could be more terrifying? Any news more terrifying than that would be utterly crushing.
Then, the West Spirit King revealed, "I have also detected the aura of a Divine Bloodline!"
At this revelation, everyone gasped. The Divine Bloodline was sothing impossibly distant to them. If the Ancestor Realm was a bright moon in the sky, they were less than ants on the ground. This was not an exaggeration; it was the grim reality.
The West Spirit King said, "The simultaneous appearance of the Yuanhong Sword and a Divine Bloodline is truly terrible news for us! Fortunately, I sensed that both auras were still very weak. Our primary goal now must be to eliminate these two potential threats! If we allow them to grow, it will inevitably spell our doom, and the doom of the Divine Race."
The West Spirit King then ordered, "Kuang Ling, Blood Spirit! You two will be responsible for infiltrating the Spirit Suppressing Domain and killing this brat!"
"Yes!" the two Spirit Clan Commanders accepted the order at once.
Kuang Ling and Blood Spirit possessed formidable combat abilities, making them significantly stronger than Chou Ling and Ghost Spirit. By sending these two, the West Spirit King showed his firm resolve to see Ye Fan dead.
The West Spirit King warned them, "Rember, that brat is strong. You must not act alone, even though he has yet to step into the Reincarnation Realm! You know what happened to Chou Ling and Ghost Spirit!"
"Yes!"
The two nodded, but internally, they were filled with disdain. They reasoned that Chou Ling and Ghost Spirit had only died because Fa Ming had also participated in the battle. Without him, the outco would have been different. Subconsciously, they had already written Ye Fan off as insignificant.
The pair arrived outside the Sealing Gate of the Spirit Clan.
Kuang Ling asked, "Do you really take the West Spirit King’s words to heart?"
"Of course not!" the Blood Spirit replied dismissively.
Kuang Ling said, "He’s scared. Terrified by a brat who hasn’t even reached the Reincarnation Realm. It seems he’s gotten old."
"Exactly. Once we kill this brat, we’ll be promoted by the Divine Race! After that, will we have any reason to fear the West Spirit King?" The Blood Spirit’s eyes burned with ambition.
In our minds, the only reason the West Spirit King is stronger is because he’s older and has cultivated longer than us. If we get that promotion from the Divine Race, we might even have a chance to ascend to godhood. Why would we fear him then?
The Blood Spirit declared boldly, "Kuang Ling, this ti it’s every man for himself. Whoever kills that brat will be the one to rise to prominence!"
"Exactly my thoughts!"
"But we’re still on good terms," Kuang Ling added quickly. "If one of us gets the kill, don’t forget the other when you beco a god!"
"Agreed!"
They set off at once. Sneaking into the territory of the Spirit Suppressing People was highly risky; if discovered, they would be surrounded and attacked. But the risk was worth it. This target was too extraordinary, and the rewards for killing him would be imnse. It was a prize worth risking their lives for.

This was Ye Fan’s Third Heaven in the Spirit Suppressing Domain.
During these three days, Ye Fan had faced various life-or-death calamities. He had pored over countless cultivation manuals, but they seed to be of no use. His bottleneck felt hopelessly stuck, and it was giving him a massive headache.
"Damn it! Not a single clue... How the hell am I supposed to break through like this?!"
Ye Fan was anxious. Ti waited for no one. If he wanted to defeat the European Pope and intimidate Cain, the Blood Ancestor, he had to break through to the Reincarnation Realm.
Once that happens, it won’t be those two old fossils calling the shots anymore. It’ll be . If I want soone dead, won’t it be as easy as lifting a finger?
Ye Fan made his way to a desolate mountain within the Spirit Suppressing Domain. The area was a dilapidated wasteland of bizarre rock formations, utterly devoid of life. That was to be expected. After all, this place was rife with slaughter, so a lack of vitality was only natural. However, it was worth noting that while the mountain lacked vitality, it was rich with Spiritual Energy. It was the perfect place for him to practice his Breathing Technique.
Just then, however, he felt a strange aura descend upon the mountain.
"Hmm?"
Ye Fan was instantly on alert. This was not the normal Spiritual Energy of the world, but the unique Spiritual Power of the Spirit Clan. He had sensed this sa power when he killed Chou Ling.
It seed soone had infiltrated the Spirit Suppressing Domain. Ye Fan’s expression hardened. So, his secrets had been discovered after all. Still, he did not fear a fight. Even if they had found him, he would not be afraid.
He stood up at once and called out, "Since you’re here, show yourself and fight!"
Instantly, a wave of Spiritual Power surged, and the Blood Spirit materialized before Ye Fan with a domineering and fierce aura.
He sneered at Ye Fan, "Brat, I’ve finally found you!" He had used the lingering aura the West Spirit King had extracted from Chou Ling’s head to track Ye Fan down.
Ye Fan replied coolly, "Looking for ? I’m curious, why?" Although he already suspected the answer, he hoped to pry more secrets from the Blood Spirit.
The Blood Spirit snarled, "To kill you, of course! You’re a potential threat, and we won’t rest until you’re dead!"
"This is the territory of the Spirit Suppressing Domain," Ye Fan pointed out. "Are you sure you can kill
here? The mont I send a signal, my people will co and besiege you!"
"Are you afraid?" the Blood Spirit retorted.
"Why would you say that?" Ye Fan asked, perplexed by the creature’s response.
The Blood Spirit sneered, "If you weren’t afraid, you wouldn’t be making threats!"
"I fear no battle!" Ye Fan declared.
The Blood Spirit scoffed. "Asking for reinforcents is impossible. My Spirit Clan is launching a full-scale assault as we speak. Do you really think anyone has ti to co help you? I’d wager not a single person will show up!"
"Then let’s fight!"
Ye Fan roared, charging forward with murderous intent. "Returning to the Sect Sword!" he bellowed, hacking down at the Blood Spirit. But his opponent was fast, easily dodging the blow.
"Is that the extent of your power? Pathetic!" the Blood Spirit said with a disdainful laugh.
"Spiritual Power!" the Blood Spirit bellowed, unleashing a formidable blast of energy that shot toward Ye Fan.
Ye Fan dodged just in ti, retaliating with a sweep of his Yuanhong Sword.
A weapon appeared in the Blood Spirit’s hands—a surprising, black bronze artifact. The artifact ca crashing down. Ye Fan dodged again, just as it smashed a huge chunk of the mountain to pieces. Its power was astonishing.
The Blood Spirit swung the heavy artifact at him again.
DANG!
It collided with the Yuanhong Sword. The impact sent a numbing shock up Ye Fan’s arm, though the Blood Spirit didn’t seem to fare much better.
His bronze artifact was forged from black Spirit copper. It was known as the Heavy Prison Peak, renowned for its imnse destructive power. It was a Spiritual Artifact once used by the Divine Race, so its power was naturally extraordinary.
